Verse
In the world's mighty gallery of pictures
There's scenes painted from life
Scenes of youth and of beauty
Scenes of hardship and strife
Scenes of wealth and of plenty
Old age and a blushing young bride
All hang on the wall
But the saddest of all
Is a picture from life's other side
Chorus
A picture from life's other side
Somebody has fell by the way
And a light has gone out with the tide
That might have been happy someday
Some poor mother at home
Is watching and waiting alone
Longing to hear, from her sweatheart so dear
That's a picture from life's other side
